My RF is a picky eater

Hi All,

Looking for some advice from other owners. We've had our little red foot Lily since November. She eats well but really only seems to like green leaf lettuce. My vet said to add other veggies to her diet like cabbage, carrots, sweet potatoes etc.. What do your RF’s like to munch?

Hi and welcome to the forum. I find that this site tells you a lot of what they need and don't need. Enjoy and post pictures when you can, we love to see Redfoots.

Hi rockymtnhigh:

May we know your name and where you are?

It might be hard to wean your tortoise off the lettuce and onto a more varied diet. Take a look at the link that Candy provided you. Then take some of those food items and chop them up real small, and chop up some of his favorite lettuce, mixing it all together. You can eventually decrease the amount of lettuce and increase the amount of other foods slowly over time.
